Patent EP-0913064-A2 (EP)
Inventor: CHAN JIM H
IPC: H04Q3/66
Filed: 1997-07-16
Abstract: A method and system 11 for quickly changing a subscriber's long distance or local carrier while allowing the subscriber to maintain the same directory number. A preferred carrier code is entered into an interim carrier database 42, 43, and an indicator is activated for communications originating on the subscriber's line 14a. When a communication originating on the subscriber's line 14a is subsequently received, the carrier-of-record code is retrieved from a subscriber database 44, and the preferred carrier code is retrieved from the interim carrier database 42, 43. The preferred carrier code is compared to the carrier-of-record code. If the preferred carrier code is different than the carrier-of-record code, the preferred carrier code is used to assign the communication to the preferred carrier. At a later time, the carrier-of-record code in the subscriber database 44 is updated with the subscriber's preferred carrier code. When it is determined that the subscriber's carrier-of-record code is the same as the preferred carrier code, the indicator for the subscriber's line is removed. Once the indicator is removed, the interim carrier database 42, 43 is no longer referenced in the course of routing communications originating on the subscriber's line 14a, and the subscriber's preferred carrier code may be deleted from the interim carrier database 42, 43.

Abstract: An image reading apparatus includes: a line sensor 5
for converting light from an original into an electric signal;
an A/D converting unit 12 for converting the electric signal
derived from the line sensor 5 into a digital signal; a white
reference storage unit 24 for storing white reference data set
before the original is read; a black reference storage unit 22
for storing black reference data set before the original is
read; a light-source light amount detecting unit for detecting
a light amount of a light source; and a shading correcting unit
13 for shading-correcting an output signal derived from the A/D
converting unit 12 with employment of both white reference data
corrected by a white reference correction coefficient and the
black reference data. As a consequence, the shading
corrections can be performed along both a main scanning
direction and a sub-scanning direction. Also, an image reading
method includes: a) a step for detecting and setting sub-scanning
white reference data when white reference data used in
a shading correction is set; b) a step for detecting sub-scanning
white reference data in each of reading lines; c) a
step for setting as a white reference correction coefficient a
ratio of a difference between the sub-scanning white reference
data when said white reference data is set and black reference
data to another difference between said sub-scanning white
reference data in the respective reading lines and said black
reference data; and d) a step for reading the original while
executing a shading correction with employment of white
reference data corrected by the white reference correction
coefficient. In this image reading method, in the case where
a plurality of the originals are read, the above-described
steps b), c), and d) are repeatedly performed. As a result,
since the setting operation for setting again the white
reference data can be omitted, the time period required to read
the image can be shortened.

Abstract: In order to ensure long-term reliability when a
photovoltaic element is bent or curved to be deformed:
   (1) In a method for manufacturing a solar cell
module having a photovoltaic element encapsulated with
a resin on a support member, the step is adopted which
forms a bent portion in the photovoltaic element and in
the support member, wherein the formation of the bent
portion is performed while reducing a working pressure
in the normal direction to a surface of the
photovoltaic element; and   (2) In a solar cell module comprising a
photovoltaic element comprising at least one
photoactive semiconductor layer on a flexible
substrate, at least a part of the flexible substrate is
subjected to tensile deformation in the direction
parallel to a surface of the substrate with a strain
less than a critical strain to lower the fill factor
(hereinafter referred to as F.F.) of the photovoltaic
element, whereby the photovoltaic element is deformed.

Abstract: An installation guide mechanism is provided which allows a
paper roll to be easily set onto a roll shaft of a paper
magazine. A roll guide is connected with a roll shaft by
inserting an insertion hole open at the rear end surface of a
roll guide onto a holder ring at the front end of the roll
shaft in a paper magazine. A tapered portion is arranged at
the front end of the roll guide. After aligning a paper roll
with the roll guide so that the tapered portion is inserted
into the center hole of the paper roll, the paper roll is
guided by the roll guide and is moved onto the roll shaft. A
magazine guide also can be installed on a floor located under a
magazine engaging port arranged on a bottom of an outer surface
of a photographic printing machine. A side guide and a center
guide are configured on the magazine guide. A pair of side
rollers, two pairs of ground contact rollers and a pair of
protruded members are included. As the paper magazine is pushed
onto the magazine guide, the side roller is guided by the side
guide and the protruded members are guided by the side guide
surfaces of the center guide to adjust the direction of the
paper magazine. The front roller and the rear roller installed
on the bottom surface of the paper magazine are rolled along
the center guide to reduce the moving resistance.

Title: Systeme cryptographique autorecuperable et autocertifiable
Inventor: YOUNG ADAM LUCAS
IPC: G09C1/00
Filed: 1998-05-21
Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé un système cryptographique à entiercement exempt de traitement non visible, ne nécessitant aucune mise en oeuvre de matériel inviolable (c'est-à-dire que ce système cryptographique peut être réalisé par logiciel). Ce système est en outre vérifiable publiquement, et ne peut être utilisé de façon subliminale pour constituer un système à clés publiques fantôme. Un système à clés publiques fantôme est un système à clé publique non entiercée, qui s'affiche publiquement de façon masquée. Les clés générées par ce procédé sont autorécupérables et autocertifiables (ou ARC). Ce système cryptographique ARC s'appuie sur un mécanisme de génération de clés qui génère une paire clé publique/clé privée, ainsi qu'un certificat prouvant que la clé a été générée conformément à l'algorithme. Chaque paire clé publique/clé privée peut être vérifiée efficacement de manière à être entiercée convenablement par n'importe qui, cette procédure de vérification n'utilisant pas la clé privée. Il s'agit donc d'une manière efficace, pour le grand public, de s'assurer que la clé privée de tout individu est entiercée de manière adéquate, les autorités compétentes étant capables d'accéder à cette clé privée si nécessaire. La vérification pouvant être effectuée par n'importe quel individu, aucune entité compétente spéciale, généralement connue sous le nom de 'tiers autorisé', n'est nécessaire. Ce système cryptographique est également exempt de traitement non visible, puisqu'aucune interaction de protocole supplémentaire n'existe entre l'utilisateur qui génère sa propre clé, et l'autorité d'authentification ou les autorités d'entiercement, en comparaison de ce qui est normalement nécessaire pour soumettre la clé publique à des systèmes de clé publique certifiés traditionnels. Ce système est en outre conçu de manière que son fonctionnement interne soit rendu publiquement examinable (il peut par exemple être distribué en format de code source), ce qui diffère des nombreux programmes nécessitant un matériel inviolable pour le dispositif d'entiercement.
